Somerhalder recently appeared on Huffpost Live, where he cleared the air once and for all. He exclaimed that he's "unbelievably grateful for all the support and all the cheering and the love" but he's "on a TV show that shoots 10 months a year." In other words, when would he find time to make the movie?

Hunnam also headlines a TV series (FX's Sons of Anarchy), but he has the luxury of a much lighter workload. The drama usually runs for about 10 episodes, while The Vampire Diaries averages 23. Somerhalder swears he was never upset about Hunnam's hiring.
